༺ Prodigy (1) ༻
1.
Unlike what one might think, life wasn’t actually as complicated as they think it was.
Live well, eat well, take care of your business well, those were the only things they needed to do.
After getting his spirit body, Siwoo’s body stopped discharging bodily waste anymore as he didn’t need to. Though, thanks to Sharon, he now had something else that he regularly discharged out of his body.
This was around the time when he was supposed to take magic classes from Sharon.
Because of certain matters, the curriculum of her elemental magic class was altered a little.
“That should be enough for today…”
“Huh? That’s it?”
“You learned things quickly, that’s why it ends quickly as well.”
Originally, Sharon would teach him various things about elemental magic.
Then, since Siwoo didn’t have any magical knowledge that he could share with them, they’d go about their ways.
Sharon would continue her magic research, while Siwoo would explore what he just learned.
However, as stated before, something changed.
Sharon added an extra time for their class as she needed to receive a vaginal injection from Siwoo to restore her brand.
“A-Anyway, it’s time for me to get my shot…”
She closed the book she was holding, stood up and bent her body over.
By ‘shot’, obviously she meant sex.
Sharon was too embarrassed to say something like ‘Let’s have sex!’ so she came up with a unique way of saying it.
It wasn’t a problem though since she also rubbed part of her body obscenely against her bed. Even for Siwoo it wasn’t hard to understand what she was trying to get at.
“Sure, but, what’s with that outfit? I don’t know where to put my eyes…”
“That’s why I’m wearing this! Doesn’t it look good on me?”
Sharon had been running around with only Siwoo’s shirt on her body since early in the morning. She was even wearing the same thing when she gave him her lesson.
When it came to something that a woman put on their naked body, there were variations of them, such as an apron or the virgin killer sweater, but Siwoo actually wasn’t really interested in those things.
Or so he thought.
His opinion changed the moment Sharon came to him dressing like that.
The back hem of the shirt barely covered her buttocks.
Both her hands were completely covered by the sleeves.
Her majestic motherhood vigorously lifted the chest area of the shirt, making them look more delectable to the eyes.
“Wouldn’t you get bored if we were to do it every day like this?”
“No, of course not. I always enjoy every moment of it! E-Especially when you’re doing it from…the back…”
She leaned on the bed and stuck out her hips. Thanks to that, the back of her shirt was rolled up and her tightly closed slit popped up from beneath it.
Seeing this kind of scene, it was hard for Siwoo to not be tempted. Though his mind would complain, ‘Aren’t we doing this too often?’, his body would still give in to his lust.
“So…does that mean…you aren’t going to do it…?”
When she shook her butt a little like this, there was no way he’d refuse.
It had been fifteen days since this relationship between the two of them had begun.
So far, they hadn’t only been doing this during their classes.
‘Siwoo, do you want to try that?’
When they were watching movies…
‘S-Siwoo…I-I’m getting wet right now…’
When they were about to sleep…
‘Sluurrrp…pwah…! Siwoo? Are you awake?’
When he just woke up…
‘S-Siwoo, there…! W-Wash that part carefully…!’
When they were showering together…
And so on.
That was when he realized that while Takasho gave a bunch of correct advice regarding women, he also missed on some of them.
He told him that doing it with the same woman over and over again would be tiring.
But in truth, it wasn’t the case at all. Siwoo suspected that his friend only said that because he hadn’t seen how hot Sharon was.
Anyway, whenever they got the chance to, even on the dinner table, they would do it to the point that Siwoo could feel his balls drying up.
Thanks to this, Sharon managed to restore part of her lost rank in three days, getting her up to the 18th rank.
When he thought about it, this wasn’t exactly a strange development.
One could think that brand was the same thing as dantian in martial arts. In that sense, an incomplete brand was pretty much the same thing as a blocked dantian. To open it up, one just needed to infuse their internal energy, and in this case, it was Siwoo’s semen.
In any case, Sharon managed to cross that insurmountable wall in merely three days.
‘S-Siwoo! I-It happened! It actually happened!’
When she did, she rushed to him with tears of joy.
After that, he thought that she’d have no problem reaching the 20th and restoring her brand completely, but…
Unfortunately, things didn’t go as well as he thought.
They barely had any progress on restoring it, perhaps because the difficulty exponentially increased.
Even when he repeatedly ejaculated inside her, pouring every bit of magic he could pour inside, they still couldn’t make much progress.
But, if there was one thing that Sharon was really good at, it was her tenacity.
Then again, if she wasn’t tenacious, she’d probably give up on trying to pay her debt a long time ago.
The sudden stagnation didn’t deter her from trying. If anything, she used this opportunity to do more research on the 18th stroke that she restored.
Just because she managed to restore it, didn’t mean she could use the magic stored in it immediately.
Within a single stroke of brand, a hundred years worth of magic, maybe even more, was stored, so one would need time to completely digest them all.
In any case, today, too, Siwoo injected more of his seeds into Sharon. When they were done, Sharon gave him a thorough clean up as usual.
2.
Siwoo’s second routine, which began at the end of his class with Sharon, was the martial arts lessons provided by Duchess Tiphereth.
Although none of them set up the time, the Duchess always waited for him on the rooftop at 4 pm.
“Hello.”
“Mm. Get ready.”
“Please take care of me today as well.”
As soon as he finished his greetings, Siwoo stretched his body to warm up.
He did it by moving every corner of his joints and performed a brief shadow boxing afterwards.
While he was doing that, Eloa would spread out a barrier around them.
As Eloa had expected, he wasn’t without talent.
To be more specific, he was as talented as a normal human athlete.
In fact, if he were to study martial arts as a hobby, Eloa wouldn’t fret about it.
Besides, it wasn’t like he cared about whether he was talented or not, and they could proceed with the training leisurely if they wanted to.
However, the reason why he picked up martial arts was because he wanted to survive, so that more options would present themselves to him in dire situations.
Eloa knew well that this was a dangerous path to take. After all, a faulty blade would end up stabbing the heart of its wielder instead of the enemy.
That was why she had been trying to bring herself to tell him, ‘Why don’t you give up and consider another path?’
In truth, she had expected him to give up soon.
The time Siwoo called as ‘martial arts training’ wasn’t even a real training. Rather, it was just him being thrown around like a ragged doll for most of the duration.
No matter how strong one’s spirit body was, getting thrown around like that would bound to hurt.
Take that pain and the fact that he hadn’t been able to touch even the hem of her shirt. It wouldn’t be strange if he were to give up already.
“Hah!”
But, there he was, stretching his neck, wearing the same expression as usual.
After resting for a night, he came back to the rooftop with the same enthusiasm as before.
Seeing this level of tenacity and persistence, she couldn’t help but applaud him.
“I’m ready now. Please take care of me today as well.”
After he was done, he got into a stance, just like what he always did.
Eloa let out a sigh.
‘Since he refused to give up on his own, I guess I’ll just tell him myself…’
“Siwoo.”
“Yes!”
His answer was filled with spirit, just like a soldier.
In fact, it was hard for Eloa to do this.
If he only did this to pass time, it would be one thing, but it was clear that he was doing his all. He was passionate and tenacious as well.
“I will be honest with you, but please don’t be too upset. You don’t have talents for martial arts.”
“Sorry?”
“Two weeks have passed, so you must have felt it already, no? All my blows, you can’t even dodge them, let alone receive them. You must have noticed that I haven’t even used half of my strength.”
Indeed.
During their training, Siwoo had not successfully dealt with anything that Eloa threw at him.
It was as if he had never taken her advice to heart.
“Is…that so…? I thought I was doing pretty well…”
Hearing her words, he became visibly depressed.
Worried about him, Eloa quickly continued her words.
Originally, she planned to just end it like this, but she couldn’t bring herself to say, ‘So, stop wasting your time and learn something else instead’ after seeing his expression.
“In any case, why don’t we start doing something different this time? Let’s try to enhance your body with magic.”
She said those words out loud, but deep inside, she felt embarrassed.
So far, they hadn’t used even a single drop of their mana in their training.
They had only been focusing on things that exclusively involved their spirit body, like the reach of one’s limbs, the body’s center of gravity and so on.
The basics of martial arts was to be able to visualize the movements that one’s limbs made even when one’s eyes were closed.
This was the basics of the basics, just like how a civil engineer would solidify the ground first before building anything on top of it.
Just like a building, if one didn’t have a good foundation in martial arts, anything that they built up afterwards would end up in vain.
Eloa believed such principle strongly, yet here she was, skipping the basics and made him do the next lesson instead.
As for the reason why she did that…it was probably because she saw Ravi in him when she saw his disappointed expression…
“Actually, that’s good too. I’m confident in my use of magic.”
Unaware of what Eloa was thinking, Siwoo let out a happy expression.
Standing next to him, she tried her best to control her eyebrows so they wouldn’t end up twitching.
“Have you ever used body enhancement before?”
“Not directly, only from my armor’s enhancements.”
“That’s normal.”
Normally, witches wouldn’t enhance their bodies using their mana.
It was because, unless they were a special case like Eloa, there was a limit on enhancing one’s body with magic.
In most cases, it would be more efficient for a witch to leave her defenses in the hand of the autonomous defense that she had in her brand and use the excess mana to attack.
For the average witches, body enhancement was a great risk, low return venture.
“Strengthening your spirit body with magic might sound foolish at a first glance, but even as a witch, the thing that you can manipulate freely is your own limbs, your own spirit body. Once you get used to it, you’ll find it to be more efficient than any kind of enhancement magic.”
As Eloa explained the common sense he needed to know, Siwoo obediently nodded his head.
“Firstly, I’ll need to check the extent of your magical power…can you show me?”
“How much do you want to see?”
“As much as you can.”
“Alright.”
Siwoo nodded with a serious expression.
And…
-Woooong!
Golden lights scattered.
His eyecatching golden eye glowed and began to absorb all the mana around him.
“Huh?”
This was a process that every witch knew, absorbing mana in the air using the self-essence magic that was stored in their brands.
But, if that was all, Eloa wouldn’t be this surprised.
The amount of mana that he absorbed was absurd.
Generally, the greater one’s magic power was, the greater the attraction force of the absorption was.
However, Siwoo’s attraction was too strong to the point that it was hard to believe to see this happen.
Not only did he attract the mana in the atmosphere, he also attracted the mana inside Eloa’s brand. It felt like if she were to let her guard down even a little, he’d be able to take all her mana without much effort.
But, her shock didn’t even end there.
He effortlessly doubled such a huge amount of mana.
And he did it again, again, again and again.
Repeatedly amplifying the mana.
He casually did something that completely defied common sense and the existing law of magic.
Before she knew it, a brilliant golden light enveloped her.
“Is this enough?”
“…”
At this point, the amount of mana he handled had already exceeded the amount of mana Eloa had.
This overwhelming storm of mana was comparable to a large Homunculus that possessed a separate space to store their mana. It looked more like a big spark rather than a flash of light.
“Do I need to get some more?”
There were more than a few things that Eloa was surprised about.
First, the amount of mana that he handled, it simply defied common sense.
Second, the mana was a result of repeated amplification and nothing else.
Third, the mana was pure, she couldn’t detect any impurities mixed in.
And lastly, from his expression, it seemed like this wasn’t even his limit.
Now Eloa realized.
How much of a genius the man in front of her was.
